There’s Still Time For Us
Verse I knew you when the summers lasted forever, Barefoot down those streets we used to know, You were ribbons, scraped-up knees and laughter, I was just a boy who watched you go. Never had the nerve to say I loved you, Maybe I was much too young to know, But something in my heart […]
Give Me A Minute
Verse You see the white hair, not the miles, The weathered hands, the slower smile, You think the world belongs to you, Like I did once when mine was new. You wear tomorrow like a crown, Certain no one’s been around The corners waiting up ahead— I know. I thought the same instead. Pre-Chorus I’m […]
Watch the World Grow
Verse Everybody’s running like the pavement’s on fire Climbing broken ladders, getting higher and higher Neon in the windows says you’re falling behind So I turned off the noise just to hear my own mind There’s a crack in the concrete, something pushing through Tiny bit of green where nobody told it to I stood […]
Same Old Fire
Verse We got breaking news at breakfast, Another siren in the feed, Everybody selling answers, Nobody asking what we need. New flags hanging from the windows, Old ghosts marching down the street, They just changed the names and logos, Same boots underneath the beat. Granddad heard it on the radio, Mom watched it live on […]
Paper Wings
Intro Morning pours through the kitchen blinds, Dust hangs slow in borrowed light. Coffee rings beside the sink. Everything is learning my name. Verse We grew up chasing satellites, Naming every cloud we’d find. Thought the map was just suggestions, Every road was ours to write. Now the mailbox knows me better, Every envelope arrives […]
Paper Chains
Verse Alarm clock rings like a firing squad, Dragging me out to the concrete god. Tie on the mask, paint the paycheck grin, Hide the firestorm burning within. Cubicle walls like padded cells, Dreams taped up on the bottom shelf. I hum melodies into stale coffee steam, Hoping someone hears the ghost of a dream. […]
Wheels of Time
VerseThe gears of history grind and groan,A ticking heart in a world of stone.The clock hands spin, relentless dance,A carousel of circumstance. Every car on the motorway screams,Chasing futures, haunted dreams.But inside my head, a different race,Wheels that squeak, refuse their place. Pre-ChorusOh, the friction burns, the metal cries,Every turn a compromise.But in the chaos, […]
A Flicker in Time
VerseWe were young like the sun in the morning,Chasing dreams through the streets, so adorning,You with your laughter, me with my heart,We danced like shadows, never set apart. Pre-ChorusBut the clock keeps ticking, whispers in the breeze,Moments slip away, like a sigh through the trees,Eyes wide open, yet blinded by the thrill,In a world of […]
Footnote
VerseI wake up every morning to the grind,Pull on my boots, leave my dreams behind.Clock ticks on, as I punch that clock,Lost in the shuffle, just another cog. The office lights hum, and the papers pile,Sacrificing my soul for a corporate smile.In the shadows of skyscrapers, I toil away,Just a footnote in history, come what […]
Time Keeps Rolling
VerseWoke up in the dust of yesterday,Time slipping like sand, fading away.You and me, we’ve been running this game,Through fire and rain, still the same. I see the lines on your face, they tell a story,Of love and pain, of faded glory.But you’re still the one, always in sight,The moon in my dark, the spark […]
Misty Memories
VerseThe nights grow long, and the stars burn low, I trace the paths we used to know. The echoes of your laughter fade, In the silence of the life we made. The years have passed like fleeting dreams, Lost in the flow of endless streams. The colors of our days have bled, Into the grey, […]
No Time To Spare
Verse Woke up today with a heavy mind, The world’s spinning faster, I’m falling behind. Can’t catch a break, can’t find the light, Everything’s a battle, just another fight. Pre-Chorus But deep down I know it’s not really you, It’s just the madness that I’m going through. I take a breath, step back from the […]
Echoes of Humanity
VerseWe left our home, the cradle of our birth, Seeking stars in skies, a new rebirth. In the void, the silence calls our name, But in our hearts, the old ghosts still remain. Pre-ChorusThrough cosmic waves, we sailed so far, Chasing dreams beyond the farthest star. But shadows followed, whispers in the dark, No matter […]
Everything Moves On
VerseIn the quiet dawn, the birds they sing,Their songs of yesterday, what joy they bring,But seasons turn and moments fade,In the wheel of time, where we’ve all been laid. Pre-ChorusWe’re just whispers in the wind, echoes in the light,Stars that shine and then fall out of sight. ChorusEverything moves on, in this endless song,From the […]
Echoes of Time
VerseDecades have passed me byIn their whispered echoes I findLessons learned, pride inspiredAs a man danced upon the moon so high ChorusMemories of Munich, a tragedy so soonFollowed by the Summer of Watergate’s gloomYouth has faded, but I still carry onWith tired eyes and a heart that’s grown strong VerseThrough the ages, I’ve seen it […]
